My son and his Rx eyeglasses

Here’s my son wearing his eyeglasses for the very first time. I was right that my son’s visions aren’t that good. Squinting and blinking many times are few of the signs that the person’s visions are having some problem. It’s sad to know that my son will be wearing eyeglasses forever but if that’s the only way for him to have a clear focus so be it. He can’t see well in a far distance which means he is near sighted just like me. The Dr. said that his vision problem is hereditary. Oh boy! I hope that my daughter won’t have the same problem too. My son is wearing his eyeglasses once in a while; I’m trying to let him get used to it. Unfortunately, last night he broke his frame. Geezzzz, it’s not even a week old yet and now it’s broken. We have to pay it ourselves because the insurance will not pay for it anymore.

SSD is a big help

Whenever my husband is on the social security disability (SSD) program I always take advantage of it because the state offers assistance to all residents who needs extra help like food stamps, WIC (woman, infant & children) program wherein they supply foods to the pregnant mother and children between the ages of 0 - 5 yrs old. If we depend on my husband’s SSD check alone it won’t be enough for us. I think his SSD can take care of our bills but nothing left for extra expenses like groceries and for fuel. I’m just thankful that there are programs that help us to get by in our daily lives.

Cyber Monday is cool and fun

Here we go again, another year which means a lot of holidays to look forward to. I don’t really care about the celebrations because we don’t celebrate it anyway but I’m so looking forward to all the products for sales. Who knows this time I might afford to get what I want that are on sale. I didn’t know about Cyber Monday until when I heard it on the local news, I only know about the black Friday though. They were saying that cyber Monday is more convenient because first of all, you don’t have to drive to your local stores to make purchase but rather you can get everything you wanted online. And most of the time people don’t have a lot of time to go to the stores. For them shopping online is just a click away.

Done for 2nite!

Ok I’m done! I’m tired, exhausted and sleepy. I don’t think I can have my beauty rest tonight though because my daughter isn’t feeling well. She has a little temperature and kind of fussy right now. She doesn’t like anyone else other than me. It’s like she don't get along with anyone else neither her daddy nor her big brother. I’m tired but, do I have a choice? Nope. I have to take care of my infant's needs. I hope and pray that she’ll get better soon. It’s hard when our children are sick because it breaks our heart seeing them uncomfortable and in pain. There are only two people in this world, only me and her. That’s her mode at this point of time. Goodnite ya'll!!!

Son is curious like curious George "monkey"

Guess what? My son is into collecting used golf balls I don’t know where he got this kind of idea, but whatever makes my son happy I’ll support him. I think I remember watching one episode of his favorite cartoon show “George the monkey” where George was hiding all the golf balls from his owner. He was hiding them all for the purpose of winning the gum balls that the store was offering. Well, actually the owner of the store said whoever will get the right estimate of these gum balls will win the 1st prize. So what George the monkey did, he collected all the golf balls that has the exact same size of the gumballs and put it inside the big container that has the same size of the gumballs container and use the golf balls for counting. To make a long story short, George won because he has the closest number of estimations.

Good info...

Are you aware that one of the major causes of Mesothelioma Cancer is from too much exposure to asbestos products? I admit, before I knew this I was so shocked because I used asbestos products (bathroom scents) back home when I was still in the Philippines. Now, I’m so concerned about this because my families back home aren’t aware of the side effects of the asbestos products. Thank God for the article about Mesothelioma awareness that I’ve read the other day in the clinic while waiting to see the doctor. I didn’t really know anything about asbestos until the other day. I have to give my family a buzz about it so they wont be using it anymore.
